Patna, August 4: In an unusual turn of events, a man in Ramnagar village, Lakhisarai district of Bihar, facilitated his wife's marriage to her boyfriend after discovering their intimate relationship. The wedding, which took place earlier this week, has garnered significant attention from the community.

TOI reported that Khushboo Kumari, 22, was married to Rajesh Kumar, 26, in 2021. Despite their marriage and having a child together, Khushboo maintained a close relationship with her childhood friend, Chandan Kumar, 24. The situation escalated when Chandan was caught by Khushboo’s in-laws after secretly visiting Rajesh’s home one night. ‘Goldman’ of Bihar: Prem Singh Takes His Golden Motorcycle for Ride in Patna, Lauds State Government and Police (Watch Video).

Instead of reacting with anger or punishment, Rajesh took an unexpected step.

Rajesh gave his blessing to the couple and wished them well as they began their new life together. Snatching Caught on Camera in Bihar: Miscreant Chases Foreign Woman Tourist, Snatches Her Purse in Gaya; Disturbing Video Surfaces.

“Both had been deeply in love and were often found talking to each other. So, I finally married my wife to her boyfriend to bring happiness to their lives. I just helped them stay together… Khush rahen, badiya se kamayen-khayen (I wish them a happy married life),” Rajesh told reporters.

Khushboo expressed her gratitude, acknowledging that her husband was aware of the relationship and agreed to their wedding after finding her with Chandan. “Now, I will stay with my new husband,” she said.

Despite the unusual circumstances, Rajesh remains with his two-year-old son, Ayush, who is deeply cherished by him and his mother. “We can’t live without him. He is our only source of happiness,” said Rajesh’s mother.

The event has become a hot topic in the village. “Wherever we go, people are talking about this unusual wedding,” said local mukhiya Savita Devi. Sarpanch Vinay Singh mentioned that he is looking into gathering more information about the situation.
